Cleveland Clinic:"Exceeding Our Customers’ Expectations
In 2002, The Cleveland Clinic launched an unprecedented effort to enhance patient satisfaction and create a permanent service culture for all employees.

Patient Satisfaction: The Indispensable Outcome, Managed Care Magazine:"Patient Satisfaction: The Indispensable Outcome

Groups that do understand the advantages certainly face a number of challenges.
